This past weekend, the Catskill Fly Fishing Center and Museum partnered with TU Women's Initiative to present a lecture on water conservation and wine tasting. Sponsored by High Hook Vineyard, attendees joined Alicea Charamut of CT TU and Jeff Skelding of FUDR in a conversation on water...

Thank you to the NEFF members who were able to help me connect with a Ralph Graves fly I purchased last weekend at the CFFCM Summerfest that was placed in another's bag and (so I thought) gone for good. The man who found it was able to contact me from a post on the message board. Life is good.

There is much to purchase in the name of fly fishing. It seems so many retailers are interested in the women angler. Which fly fishing products either for women or general/unisex do you find to be the best? For instance, I love my Orvis sling pack, but go nowhere on the water without a Buff.

Trout Unlimited continues its effort to promote women membership in the organization. The TU Women's Initiative program has been successful by introducing 2600 women to the world on conservation and angling. In NJ, women membership numbers just under 200 amongst the ten chapters throughout the...

Many people become part of the fly fishing community for various reasons. Some were introduced to the sport by family or friends, while others picked it up from a spouse, educational course or as a member of a fishing program. In addition, involvement has stemmed from participation in...

To the women who check out the board, welcome to a group for women anglers. So...what was your best and/or worst experience on the water?

Just got the brochure in the mail today. I am excited to go! Will be tying at the Joan Wulff Fly Fishers table on Saturday. Hope to see some of you around!

Heading up to visit some friends in Ithaca, NY and wondering if anyone knows of some nice streams or areas that are fairly accessible for someone not from the area and still new to the sport- about two years. I know of some small streams near Cornell, but other than that... Any information...

Fished the Farmington river this weekend. Water temps were cold and the river was running about 350 CFS according to a local shop there. Some of the more popular pools were crowded, but the highlight was fishing the Boneyard where fish were rising all over the place to little sulphers and tiny...

Anyone fish the Housy in CT lately? I will be up there this coming weekend and looking for any commentary (positive, of course) before I hit the local shops. Thanks!

I have to give a big round of applause to the fine gentlemen of the East Jersey TU who are teaching fly tying courses this Spring (Paramus and Clifton). I learned to tie my first two flies- a wolly and montana nymph and they have the patience of saints to help a brand new neophyte. Cannot wait...

I want to take the time to thank all the people who have helped me out this past year with advice, words of encouragement and helpful hints along the way. I am proud to say I've fished in almost all of the New England states (except Maine) and have found the more practice, the more time on the...

Anyone ever fish the Norwalk River in CT? What a great place to cast some lines.

I have been fishing the Saddle River from the Ridgewood Duck Pond and have seen some nice size fish hiding in some of the pools, but no matter what I seem to do, they are not interested. I have presented WollyBuggers, Caddis, Nymphs, Scuds, Royal Wulffs and have had no luck. I tried the above 5...

I am excited to learn from various community members as I am new to the field. I thank my Dad who got me into flyfishing, because after seeing his pictures from Yellowstone and hearing some great stories, sparked an interest in picking a rod and reel, taking a TU course, reading on the subject...
